On-Campus Recruitment

Seniors have the option of interviewing for jobs on-campus as they begin their job search. Each year between 40 - 50 employers come to campus to interview seniors for positions in diverse career fields. Some types of employers, however, are able utilize on-campus recruiting more than others. Career Services strives to attract a wide-range of employers for on-campus interviews, participation in career fairs, or as a referral only employer.
